i think that's a mistake. >> steve, ben bernanke said today if we do go over the fiscal cliff, even if it's for a short period of time, it's going to be very costly and they do not have the tools to basically dig us out of it. do you believe if we go over the fiscal cliff it won't be as easy as the governor is suggesting? >> we're in trouble anyway this quarter and the next quarter and putting on taxes of any kind would be the wrong thing to do. sometimes the governor is a former physician, current physician, and you learn first go don't harm the patient. putting on taxes would harm the patient. we've seen that around the world. >> what do we do with the deficit problem we have? >> the only way to get rid of a deficit ultimately, spending restraint. you've got to do entitlement reform. that will take months, not a few weeks, but it's grow the economy. if we had revenues equal to what we normally do, 18%, 19% of gdp, that cuts the deficit in half. there's no way you can tax and cut spend out of this contraction. the last time we tried that was the early 1930s. did not work. >> let me di
